ABSTRACT
One hundred and ten histologically confirmed cases of tumors and tumor-like conditions of the vulva and vagina are studied. The most common benign tumors of the vulva are condylomas [27.2%], while in the vagina cystic lesions come first [48.2%]. The majority of malignant tumors of the vulva and vagina are squamous cell carcinomas [63% and 42.8% respectively]. Leiomyosarcomas are equally as common in the vagina. The role of Pap smear cytology in the assessment of such lesions retrospectively is limited. A prospective cytologic study would be more rewarding. Close cooperation between the gynecologist and Pathologist is mandatory to improve the diagnosis of these lesions and thus the provide more appropriate medical care
